Electric breakdown in transformer oil subjected to a quasi-uniform de electric field has been triggered by a focused laser pulse and prebreakdown discharge phenomena were imaged by the shadowing technique. Extensive data were recorded of the prebreakdown phenomena, such as streamers and gas bubble growth, from the initiation of the laser plasma to the disruptive discharge. The data was used to qua

The report focuses on an evacuation experiment, which was performed within the second work package of the Swedish METRO project. The experiment involved 100 participants, both men and women in the ages 18-66 years, who individually evacuated a smoke-filled rail tunnel of approximately 200 metres length. The main purpose of the experiment was to collect and derive data on human behaviour and moveme

INTRODUCTION.: The most common immunosuppressive treatment in de novo renal transplantation is a triple regimen that includes tacrolimus, mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) and corticosteroids, and that may also include antibody induction. Whether nephrotoxicity is an issue with tacrolimus at the currently used dosages remains an open question. METHODS.: We pooled data from three large, randomized, de no

Artikeln diskuterar en väsentligen nordamerikansk tanketradition som explicit eller implicit framställer den centrala antika filosofiska frågan – ”hur bör jag leva?” – som sin frågehorisont, och som gör det såväl teoretiskt, empiriskt som normativt. Det handlar om sociologer och andra samhällsvetare, men också om litteraturvetare och kulturkritiker, essäister och skönlitterära författare. ArtikelnThe article describes and analyses an essentially American intellectual tradition which explicitly or implicitly poses the central question of Hellenistic and Roman philosophy – ”how should I live?” – as its main theme and concern, and which discusses the matter theoretically, empirically, and normatively. The tradition includes sociologists and other social scientists, but also cultural theorists

Lumbar spine radiography is often performed instead of CT for radiation dose concerns.

We investigated whether exposing a wound-healing-sensitive cell line to human wound fluid (HWF) could prime the cells to increase their tumor-forming ability in nude mice and, if so, whether this ability can be inhibited by pharmacological substances.

BACKGROUND: Inflammation has been proposed to be important in the pathogenesis of diabetic retinopathy. An early feature of inflammation is the release of cytokines leading to increased expression of endothelial activation markers such as vascular cellular adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1). Here we investigated the impact of diabetes and dyslipidemia on VCAM-1 expression in mouse retinal vessels, as we

Socially the context of archaeology is supposed to have travelled from kings, princes and aristocracy down to the bourgeoisie and the middle class. However members of the royal family still have a central role as it is seen from the current exhibition “Queen Margrethe II and archaeology” on Moesgård Museum at Århus and the National Museum in Copenhagen. The aim is here to examine the royal archaeo

OBJECTIVE: Breast cancers detected between screening examinations can influence the sensitivity of a screening programme. Studies of the prognosis of these so-called interval breast cancers show diverging results. We investigated the course of interval breast cancer over time in the Malmo Mammographic Screening Trial (MMST) 1976-86 and the Malmo Mammographic Service Screening Programme (MMSSP) 199
